tc Journal VOLUME XXX. COLUMBUS, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3. 1810. NUMBER 58. lie 1)10 FRIDAY, MAY 29, 1840. VILE FORGERY. We havs long been satisfied that the leaden of the dominant party, for tho sake of perpetuating in their hands their ill-gotten and much-abused power, and to preserve their hold upon the "spoils of office" legitimate as well as illegitimate would use almost every species of trick anil deception; but we were not prepared to believe that they would resort to direct forgery to save their sinking cause : and we were nota little astonished when the following printed Circular was put into our hands, to which the name of the Chairman of the Whig Stats Central Committee, also in print, is forged, purporting to be signed by order of the CommitteeIt is hardly necessary to say (which, however, we are authorized by the State Central Committee to do) that no such document was ever seen or heard of by any member of that Committee, until it was forwarded to the Chairman by the gentlemen to whom it was addressed at Dayton. Another copy of the same forged document has been forwarded to the Chairman of the Committee by a gentleman at Lancaster, to whom it was addressed. Doth of these documents were sent to their respective places of destination from this cily through the Post-office. They were post marked " Columbus, May 25." In both instances they were at once detected as farmeries, by the persons to whom they were directed. How many more have been forwarded to various parts of this State and of other States, we are unable to say ; but we have reason to believe that they have been extensively circulated. We give below a true copy of this infamous document, (omitting the signature,) that an intelligent and virtuous community may draw their own conclusions as to its object, and form their own estimate of a cause which a resort to such unprincipled means 1s deemed necessary to sustain. CIRCULAR: Pbivatb a.vd Cosifioestiai.. The times call for decided and eneroelio action. The crisis has arrived when we MUST have relief. No half way measures will answer our purpose now. The Vandals must be driven from the capital at all hazards. The end to be accomplished will justify the resort to ANY means within our power; for we stand upon the abyss of destruction, to which we have been hurried by the mad schemes of the present dominant party. We must make one last desperate effort more to save our country, or we are lost, irretrievably and forever. Union and concert of action are essential to the suc cess of the Democrats Harrison cause-. We cannot rely upon reason and argument to convince the great mass of the people of their political errors: Hut they must be reached through their sufferings. And more especially is this the case with the Germans. Accustomed, in their own country, to look to the government as the dispenser of (rood and of evil, of prosper ity and adversity, we must charge home unceasingly upon the administration all the embarrassments and pecuniary difficulties of the country the fall in the price of produce, and proclaim continually that, as soon as Gen. Harrison is elected, all will be prosper-. ous trade flourishing commerce reviving high pri eea for wheat and this numerous, but ignorant class, will be induced to aid in putting down the administration, from their cupidity, if nothing else. The next class upon which we can operate is the journeymen mechanics and laboring men. Fortunately for us our party possesses the power of making money scarce, and the means ot giving employment, or withholding it. The capital and the command of the business of the country is in our hands. This power alone, if judiciously used, will give us Ohio, and secure the election of Gen. Harrison. The journeyman mechanic, from the nature of his employment, possesses but little independence of mind, and rather than lime his lituation, will generally conform to the wishes of his employers in political matters. This course has heretofore been successfully pursued in oilier parts of the country, and if commenced soon in this Slate, and cautiously persevered in until election, will bring thousands to the standard of Harrisonian democracy, or compel those who are obstinate to seek employment elsewhere, and thus lose their residence and their voles. The reasons assigned for all this, must be the prostration of business by the ruinous acts of the administration. The time for argument has indeed gone by. The passions and prejudices of the people must be appeal ed to. This alone can arouse them from the fatal slumber into which they have been lulled hy the syren song of Loco foco democracy. Sympathy for the wronged, is a powerful chord in the human heart when properly touched: and when aroused for the war-worn veteran who heads our ranks will sweep over the land wiih a resistless force. This should be seen to. Cslumnies, the most vile and rovoltinir, set afloat against the old Genoral, charged to the Loco-focos. and rebutted with indignation by our party, would produce an astonishing effect. This has been dona to some extent, hut not enouoli, Elfigies, cloth ed in petticoats and hung up by the road side, would do much good in the same way. Making llie locos call him a coward and a granny, and assert that he nover was in n h iitle, will arouse the indignation of his old soldiers. St ties of ben. Harrison e benevo lence and kindness to orphans and decrepid old men invented and circulated far and wide, would effect t crest deal. On the oilier hand, continually charge Van Duren with being a federalist with opposition to the war, and to the extension of the riuhl of suffrage with hit ' extravagant expenditure of the public money his gold plates, knives and forkshis English coach and his Kniilnh livery. I he Handing army will he a power ful weapon with the tuwer and ignorant classes. Above all, keep up the incessant ami intangible cry of corruption corruption. Tito Posl Office Department is a fine field for this. Never slop to bandy proof with our upponer.ts, but keep thrm on the dclrnce. I'roclaitn changes in every quarter, but be very can-tut in statins names. Davis' speech on the reduction of tho wages of labor by the administration, if kept before the public, will have immense effect with those who are not accus tomed to investigate political matters. Thedefaul ers, if artfully paraded before the public rye, will have great influence over the minus ol the timid and wave intf. We have every thing to gain, and nothing to lose in the present contest. I liiuirs cannot be any worse, an the American people will bless us in all after times, if we can, by any mrant, rid the country of the present corrupt and corrupting dynasty. Willi this end view, we respectfully submit the shove suggestion for your consideration, relying -upon your prudence and devotion to the cause, lor their judicious applica tion. P. S. Since the above was in type, we have re ceived from the Central Committee a communication in reference to this "Circular," which will be found in another column. fc The Middletown Mail, neutral, has given place to the Middletown Farmer which, of course, tak ides with the Log Cabins. We have received a num ber of new Whig papers, within the past two weeks, and from every point of the compass. Buckeye Log Colon in I'iqua. It would afford pleasure to comply with (lie request in the I'iqua Cour ier, by publishing the acoounl of the raising of the Cabin in Ptqua, but we luck for room.

Nothing is so alarming to the spoilsmen as the spirit of inquiry which the present wide-spread business prostration and pecuniary distress has awakened among the People. So long as each man's business, with ordinary skill and diligence on his part, continued to prosper, the cry of the sentinel servants who had been chosen to watch over our political interests and see that no evil befel the Republic that "all is will" satisfied the majority of the People. That eternal vigilance, which we have been truly told is the price of liberty, slept, or was only awake to the professions of devotion to correet principles and the public weal, so constantly and loudly proclaimed by the men in power, and those who were selfishly interested in perpetuating the power in their hands, until a blight came upon every man's business. All feel now lhat something is wrong somewhere all are diligently inquiring, whenoe comes this terrible reverse, and who is responsible fur it 1 Public attention has been directed to the acts of eur rulers, as the true cause of the manifold evils under which we are now groaning) It is our solemn conviction, that the chief executive-ad and prominent leaders of Ihe present Federal Ad- uislration are responsible for the present state of logs. 1 heir real motives and oluciul acts will not bear examination, and they know it. It is our pre sent purpose, in as few words as possible, to establish these facts, especially the latter.

Charge them with bringing the power and patronage f the Government into conflict with the freedom of lections, and they tell us "to the victors belono the spoils. Point to the enormous and fraudulent cfalcations of Swartwout and others, and show from public documents, which themselves have reluctantly furnished, that the peculations of these thieves was winked at by at least one member of Mr. Van Buren' Cabinet, and their sole response is, ' Swartwout was A Whig." Expose their favorite measure, the Sub-Treasury one effect of which they have pro- aimed, in an unguarded moment, will be to reduce the wages of labor and the price of products to the standard of Cuba and the iron despotisms of Europe Ihey shout, Democracy, Democracy! and assail, as falsely as furiously, the character of Ihe patriot Harrison. Give voice to the alarm which has been excited by their last device to get and perpetuate all power in their own unhallowed hands, and rivet the chains of slavery upon the People; the startling plan of the Secretary of War to raise a standing army or two hun dred thousand hen, which, let it not be forgotten by the People, the President, in his annual Message to Congress, says ' hi cannot too strongly recom mend," they make a scape-goal of the Secretary, and cry the Secretary did it, the Secretary, and not Ihe President, is responsible for this odious plan, so angerous, if adopted, to the liberty of Ihe citizen; and their pensioned presses refuse to spread thi plan" before the People. It must not see the light : it is too bold a measure of tyrsnny : the People will not bear it yet. And so throughout the long catalogue of offences of which they stand charged. They have no substantial defence. Their course has been reek- ess, selfish, experimental, dishonest, and they know it; and, what troubles them most, the majority of Ihe People know it know it from sad experience of ill fleets. Out power and the spoils are dear to their cankered hearts, and must be preserved. Hence their asperate and unceasing efforts to divert public atten tion from tin true issue, and fix it upon false ones of their own making. Hence their continual hue and cry and false clamor, the last resort of cunning rogues on the eve of detection. Hence' their suppression! and perversion! of facts, their fear of publio discussion and secret exhortations to lhat porlion of the People whom Ihey still keep deceived not to go in the way of those of their fellow-citizens who would say to them.

When the oluue-holders, from the Governor down to Ihe man of ihe "out side quires," were called, in a body, to Washington cily, under pretence of attend- g the convention at Baltimore, which did not noni- nate a Vice President, we were satisfied, that the ad ministration had got a glimpse of ihe hand writing on the wall, and becoming alarmed, had called in the 'tooth layert" and astrologers from various parts of the union, lo meet and enquire, not what they should do to save Ihe nation but "what they should do to be saved" themsslves. The efforts of this grand consultation were soon dis- loverable, even at this distance from the While House. The office-holders which had previously been noisy declnimnrs from the stump, in bar rooms, and in the corners of the streets," all at once became silent. The browbeating, boisterous, dictatorial manner of the man "clothed in a lillle brief authority," was suddenly changed to kindness and conciliation. No challen ges were given hy those who enjoy "the patronage of Ihe General Government," to the advocates of the cause of the people lo meet them in public discussion a portentous calm all at once succeeded to the storm of party zeal. Even "the little Marshal," who has for years been so fascinated by the sound of his own musical voice that silence seemed lo him "the worst of ills," obedient to orders from head quarters, has, for a time, ceased lo hold forth in public. But what is Ihe meaning of all lliixl Do the office holders mean to give up "the ipoili" without a struggle! No indeed ! Let not the friends of reform be lulled into a fatal security by a deceptive calm in the political elements- Tar more the treacherous calm I dread Than tempests bursting o'er my head." The office-holders finding themselves unable to re sist the storm of public indignation which Iheir mil-conduct has excited have concluded it best, like the pliant willow, to (end before the blast, thinking it will soon pass over. To speak plainly, they have concluded it bestlo allay, for the present, the political excitement which is abroad in the land to make little open, opposition to the causa of Ihe people and to lull the friends of reform into a fatal security, by allowing t'nem to think that the battle has already been fought, a-iid the victory won. They believe that the present enthusiasm among the friends of Harrison and Tyler, will spend itsslf in conventions, celebrations, proces sions, and such like publio demonstralions, while a car eful and effective organization of their ranks will be neglected and, consequently, when a systematic onset is made upon them by the well trained bands of the office-holders, they will be found like undisciplin ed mil ilia in a pitched battle, all in confusion, and that in tvitable defeat will he the consequence. The plan of the administration party is, therefore, to keep quiet, to lie low, until after the adjournment of Congrea s; and then, when the friends of Harrison and Reform are reposing in fancied secuiity, as the officeholder t rust they will be, lo make a simultaneous on set upon their unorganized ranks, throughout the union to proclaim lhat there ts Iremenduous reaction in favor of I he administration lo get some new humbug, poasi bly, to circulate freely among the people, Treasury .Notes, or Sub-Treasury Drafts to proclaim that the Sub-Treasury has given the promised relief, and thtto t. oarry iho fell oleollono hy olnrm. We, the refore, as faithful sentinels on the watch tower of 1 iberty, desin it our duty to caution our friends ga inst the arts and devices of subtle enemy to warn t hem to be industrious and vigilant to seek the dissemi nation of correct principles and important truths anion g the great body of Ihe people, who, ma ny of them, from Iheir situation, have not access to all thesoureoa of correct information which iheir more for tunate neighbors and friends enjoy to effect an early systematic, and efficient organization, among Ihi friend of true reform and in short, to be every way prepared for the great conical wkjich we must maintain in favor of liberty, prosperity, and the constitution, at the approaching elections. THE WAND OF THE MAGICIAN. The reputation of possessing power or infallibility is frequently equivalent to its actual possession, While Ihe soldiers of Napoloon, as well as his ene mies, belitved him unconquerable, he waa in fact lo, But when Ihe element! conspired against him, and broke the magio spell of his invincibility, the charm was gone, and with il, hia good fortune. "What do you fear, you carry Viaar," wai luffi- cirnt lo inspire Ihe dismayed sailors with renewed courage amidst the roar of the winds and waves thai threatened them with instant destruction; and many a man of second, or even third rale ahililies, has wielded the political power of a great party, merely berause he has had the name of being its leader and the dispenser of its patronage. This ia the true secret of the success of Martin Van Buret). Supremely selfish, and endowed by nature with that stealthy cunning which enables animals of Ihe foliim raco lo seize iheir unsuspecting prey with out encountering danger to themselves; but possessing neither boldness, magnanimity, nor true wisdom, he has attained his ends by those secret and indirect meani which have secured to iin the unenviabl nam of "Ihe Little Magician." With this name, the great mass of the people have associated the idea of some mysterious supernatural power to insure the suc cess of his schemes, however injurious lo the inter est of the country, or however improbable their a1 tuinmcnt inisjht appear. This idoa, the servile follow ers of Mr. Van lluren those who wait si his table for Iho sake of the crumbs which fall from il have industriously propagated among the people lor the sake of securing tho votes of the office-seekers, and of those whose only ambition is "to be on the strange. I title." nut il is Ihe misfortune of those who systematically seek to deceive others, lo become al last the dupes of their own impositions, and Is fall victims to their blind belief in their own infallible fortune. They cense to place due reliance on Ihe established connection bolwoen cause and effect, and consequently neglect the moans which are alone competent to secure the desired end. Thus, we see thai a blind belief in his unconquerable destiny, led Napoleon to aacrifice his veteran ar mies and himself in the snows of Husiia Criur, to neglect the warnings of his friends, and fall t victim to tbo daggers of the conspirators; and tho same blind infatuation seems lo hate led Mr. Van Buren lo disregard the counsel of the purest patriots and greatest statesmen of the land to close his ears to the petitions Ihe grosns tin deep murmurings of sn oppressed and indignant people and lo rush- madly on to certain destruction, relying on his magical wand lo save him from his Impending fate. But it will not avail him his wand it broke its talismanie spell has departed. The recent electiona in the empire Slate have been, to his fortune, what the inowi of Russia were lo the armies of Napoleon. The "land of steady habits" has deserted his sinking cause, as did the Saxons that of the Corsican Hero, The ancient Dominion has given him notice that his power must hereafter be circumscribed within the limits of Ihe place of his nativity and a Waterloo defeat will put a final end, in November next, lo all his remaining hopes. THE COMMITTEE. It is humiliating to witness the low shifts to which the friends of Martin Van Buren allow themselves to resorl, in iheir efforts to sustain him. Every movement lhat is made beats upon its black front evidence, not to be mistaken, that they are engaged in a struggle for power and place not for principle. Witness the influence thut is brought to bear upon the Presidential question, by the removal of faithful and capable me.i from office, to give place lo those who will use all the facilities of means and station to perpetuato power in the hands of the present ruling party. Wit- ness the efforts lhat have been made to bring reproach pon the name of on who has brought honor to his country, and whose whole life has been one of peril, toil, and active usefulness. Men who approved the means resorted toby Gen. Jackson to relieve himself from the great burden of a personal Mention to the whole of his extensive correspondence, (which, per haps, as in the case of Gen. Harrison, was impossi ble,) now affect the greatest astonishment that a can didate for the Presidency should rosort to such means! Now it is well known that it would be utterly impossible for Gen. Harrison, or any man simi- arly situated, to attend to hi whole correspondence without the employment of at least a private secretary; and certainly the judgment of a committee, among Republicans, will be entitled lo as much weight, and be as unexceptionable a tribunal, as that of one man. Let it b understood and remembered, also, thai Gen. Harrison is not now for the first time brought before the people as a candidate for the Presidency : lie wot a candidate at Ihe latl election, when hit principle! were fully made known and cuncastedi and he has SAID THAT THKY REMAIN UNCHANGED. We Will now show Ihe "certifiers" below if ihey havo not already seen reason to wish they had observed the proverb, lhat it is best when Ihey have "nothing lo say, to say nothing." From His OliloSun. We do hereby certify that wi heard Jesse R. Grant, state in a public company on tins day in Batavia, near Ihe Court House, lhat General William Henry Harrison, told him on yesterday thai he never knew until within a few days, who Ihe Committee was that had assumed Ihe right to answer his letters, and that he did not know until the day before yesterday, who the chairman of that coiiimiuee was.

Here, then, the dignified Speaker of the Ohio House of Representalives, a grave Senator in the Ohio Le gislature, an honorable ex-member of the Congress of the United States, and eight other gentlemen "of high respectability," have published to the world that they could be duped hy an assertion (admitting it had been asserted) lhat Gen. Harrison, months afler it had been the common theme of the whole country, although having daily intercourse with both political opponents and political friends, "never knew, until within a few days, who the committee was that had assumed Ihe right to answer his letters; and thai he did not know until the day before yesterday, who tin chairman of that committee was"! Really, gentlemen, you must have "eyes most devoutly willing lo be blind," or you could not be so easily induced to believe that there was such a complete stagnation of the political sea in the locality of North Bend and the Queen city, while the waves have been running so high every where else! Common prudonce and forecast, to aay nothing of the far-reaching and comprehensive views which statesmen should, and deep statesman do, lake of every thing lhat comes before them, should have induced you lo have obtained Ihe most explicit dec laration even to cerlifkale under his own hand before you would have believed you understood him. One would suppose lhat a man of ordinary capacity, and sane upon all subjects, would at first blush have taken such a declaration, however clearly expressed, as a hoar yet these grave legislators, and men ufhigh respectability, have mudly soin-J upon a casual ex pression of a fellow-citizen, distorted il into an asser- serlinn which no reasoning man in his senses could neueve, and sent oul their thunders or "Development Extraordinary !"' and "Stupenduus Fraud!" Sure ly, gentlemen, you had become fuddled upon the fumet of hard cider ! Although, nut at all necessary for the refutation of the singularly ridiculous certificate above given, we copy from the Clermont Courier Mr. Grant's explana tion: A friend has just placed in my hand an extra Ohio Sun, of the Kith, containing the rertificale of T.J. Buchanan and oihers, on Ihe auhjeel of a stalemeut I made in Ilalavia on thai day. As those cerliftratn- men seem to have misunderstood what I said, I feel it my duly to explain. 1 did not any, or did not intend to say, for such was not the fnct, lhat (Jen. Harrison said to me any thing on that subject. i is true I saw Gen. Ilnrrisnn at the time referred to, and had some conversation with him, but not on that subject, for I neither knew or cared about thai commilteu. While we were in conversation, some three or four gentlemen of Gen. Harrison's acquaintance, niel in on the pavement, anil commenced a conversation with liim, on Ihe subject of Mr. Grundy's speech, at Ihe Baltimore convention, in which Mr. Grundy look occasion to say, by the authority or Judge Burke, that Gen. Harrison waa a euper.inniialcd, debilitated old man. whol ly incapable uf receiving, reading, or answering his own lellers. Hence the necessity of appointing thi committee. Afler some remarks hy Gen. Harrison, I understood him to say that h did not know, until within a tew nays, wuo composed thai coiinmiioo, except the chairman. I will now stale what I said on thnt subject while in Batavia, fur 1 think I remember very well everv word, and what led to the remark. 1 saw a group of some mcniy men cuneciea logeiuer near the Recor der's office, and heard Thomas J. Buchanan declaiming in a very loud and apparently angry manner, against Gen. Harrison for having, what he termed, a board of conscience-keepers. Some person present, whom I did not know, remarked that he supposed it was such a committee as Gen. Jackson's Nashville white-washing committee. I theu remarked that I saw Gen. Harrison the day before, and heard hirn say that he did not know who that committee was until within a few days, except the chairman. Before I had quite finished the remark I waa interrupted by J. D. Morris, who seemed to be passing behind where I stood. I then repealed the statement, and he passed along to the court-house. ': Gen. Harrison did not say, that he did not know who the chairman was until day before yesterday, neither did I so state. But he did state that he read and examined his letters himtelf, and such as required no particular answer, he handed over lo the chairman of lhat committee. During my interview with Gen. Harrison (for it was the first time I ever saw him) I learned thi fact, that he is not lhat broken down, de bilitated old man, that his enemies have represented him to be, but seems to be in full enjoyment of health, and vigor, and seems to b fully capable of attending to any kind of business. And on the subject of eour-arn, to much doubted by a certain class of politicians, if 1 were permitted to judge Irom the tire ol nis eye, i would say some ot these certincate-men migni oe engaged in a better business than putting it lo the lest.

Dear Sin I enclose you herein i declaration of in dependence-. Mr. Palmer is a man of probity and ex tensive influence. His letter shows him to b a man of talent. One thing speaks in favor of his sincerity he might have had the nomination of the Tory parly for the next Legislature, and it is believed other chances were not wanting for him to feed at Ihe public crib. He lias had the aourage to take Ihe right "position," and to come out and "define" il; and my objeet in for warding it to you is, that it may find a place in your valuable paper, as I am sure it will, if you know the man, and think as highly of the production a I do. I will add, that there an a good many others in this plac alone, probably not lesi than 1 0 or 1 2, not to men- lion those in the surrounding lowns who have come out from the ranks of thi Utuiant, and joined Ihe rev olutionary army in this great moral war for independence. This step of Mr. Palmer' will embolden them to eome out. The good work goes bravely on. We are united, not lorn by local dissensions. Truly did Mr. Van Buren say, lhat "the sober second thought of the people ia always right," as he will have occasion to reflect amid the shades of Kinderhook. Yours respectfully. . rrom ttmt--j-I.ETTER To the Chairman of the Democratic Convention, of the 3d Congressional Uiuncl oj I lie .Vne oj unto, to lie holden at ,V. Marys, on Ihe ifoiA of the present month, May, itf-lii. Sir: The position my name occupies, as one of the delegation from this county, lo represent its democracy in your Convention, and the conclusions to which my mind has been drawn, in relation lo Ihe policy of the administration, impose upon me a duty from which 1 have no disposition to shrink a duty which I will endeavor to perform in lhat spirit of candor, conciliation, and manly frankness, which, I trust, will ever distinguish my intercourse wilh my fellow-citizens, upon every important question that may arise for their decision. I cannot, sir, participate in Ihe deliberation of your Convention; nor by any acta of mine, however feeble or unimportant ihey may be, longer contribute to strengthen a cause whiih the settled convictions of my judgment, the irresistible testimony of events- teach me, is at war with the best interests of my coun trywith the stability and permanency or it most cherished institutions. A cause which is in open hos tility loan those cardinal principles ol democracy by which II proleaaea lo be governed one which, in the tendency of it measures, is fraught with incalculable danger to the very existence of the Republic; and which seeks, hy Ihe elevation of a Chief Magistrate whose acta are condemned by Ihe almost unanimous voice of the American feop'.e ould lhat voice be heard in its own undisguised language of disapprobation, as it is heard,in the confiding intercourse of private life, free irom trie wintering inuuencn or party prejuuice ana parly tyranny lo subvert the very principles upon which our oovemment is based. But, in making; this communication. Mr. Chairman, I shall not trespass upon Ihe patience of your Convention, nor tamper wilh feelings differing from my own, hy a recurrence to the reasons lhat have brought con-notion lo my mind, any further than may he necessary to justify the course 1 have taken. I will only refer in language as brief, and in terms aa conciliatory, as I am capable of employing;, to one or two of th more prominent or Ihe manifold errors and abuses to which my attention ha been directed; and lo w hich much of Ihe present distress of the country, and of the dangers with which it is threatened, are unquestionably to b attributed. Of these, the most striking: and disastrous in its ef fects upon the prosperity and welfare of ihe people the most dangerous in its tendency to their liberty and happiness is undoubtedly the alarming usurpation of ihe lale and present Administrnii ns, in iheir efforts lo unite the moneyed with Iho r.xeculive patronage and power of the Government. To reducn Ihe circu lating medium or the country to a standard Infinitely below Ihe warns of industry and of euterprii. To unsettle, and greatly to diminish, Ihe fixed value of property, which has brought poverty and suffering upon thousands of the most worthy and valuable of our fel- low-ciuzens, and spread ruin and desolation through out the land. To depress the great muss of the labor ing and productive clashes of community, by reducing tho prices of labor and of industry, to Ihe standard of Iho most degraded portions, and the worst governed nationa, of Ihe old world; and finally, lo lake from Ihe poor man thnt powerful and salutary Incentive lo action lhat incumnariihlv beneficent stimulus In An honest, upright, and industrious course of life, which a wholesome and woll regulated uredil system is so admirably calculated lo Imparl. Add lo this, the still more recent and appalling de velopment, of a design upon the liberliea of Ihe people, in Ihe late recommendation of one of the branches of Ihe National Council, for raising, equipping, and disciplining an elToctire army of 100,000 men a band uf mercenary soldiers to be at all limes al Ihe beck of iho party in power; and it no longer leaves any room lo doubt that the tendency of Ihe leading measures of the Administration Is to perpetualc lis power, al whatever aacrifice of popular rights and popular principles it may demand. Oilier causes I might name, for they are numerous and stailling; but these, I trust, were lltero none others, will be deemed sufficient lo justify Ihe course 1 have taken. One other- consideration, however, I will mention, as having induced me, more especially at this time, to seek an opportunity to lay my views before the political party of which your Convention ii composed. My name has been freely used by a por tion of that parly, in connexion with its candidacy Tor representative from this district to the next Stale Legislature. In the coming election, so important in it results upon the welfare of Ihe country, I desire to go into the eontest with "a pure heart, and with clean hands" to stand forth unshackled either by personal interest or by party obligations. And aa I could not, if elected, discharge mv duty to my country, to my conscience and to my God, without doing violence to Ihe (onnuene that would have thus Den reposed tn me, I embrace this opportunity to make known my position. In thus severing myself from the deliberations of your body, and from political identity with the individuals of whom it ia composed, I have found that it has required no ordinary effort of the will no common strength of purpose to withdraw from thi support of those long tried and faithful friends, whoso claims to the honorable and responsible trust of Representative in our National uouneil, will be brought forward Tor its decision. But, as the motives which have governed me, are, Not that I loved Cesar less, but Home more," I trust that I shall be acquitted of any personal hostility in my feelings towards those gentlemen. My. only desire, my most fervent and daily aspiration to my Maker, is, lo see this great Government, of Ihis hitherto prosperous and happy people, wrested from the hands of the spoilsmen rescued from the grasp of those Vandals, who have laid the sxe at the root ot Ihe aacred tree of liberty and- to- M it commuted to Ihe guidance of ethers, men capable,, more honest, more devoted to their country's good. wiin inese sentiments, Mr. Chairman, I have th honor to be, Your yery humble aerv't, ANDREW PALMER. rroei ths I'llM.

We havs long been satisfied that the leaden of the dominant party, for tho sake of perpetuating in their hands their ill-gotten and much-abused power, and to preserve their hold upon the "spoils of office" legitimate as well as illegitimate would use almost every species of trick anil deception; but we were not prepared to believe that they would resort to direct forgery to save their sinking cause : and we were nota little astonished when the following printed Circular was put into our hands, to which the name of the Chairman of the Whig Stats Central Committee, also in print, is forged, purporting to be signed by order of the CommitteeIt is hardly necessary to say (which, however, we are authorized by the State Central Committee to do) that no such document was ever seen or heard of by any member of that Committee, until it was forwarded to the Chairman by the gentlemen to whom it was addressed at Dayton. Another copy of the same forged document has been forwarded to the Chairman of the Committee by a gentleman at Lancaster, to whom it was addressed. Doth of these documents were sent to their respective places of destination from this cily through the Post-office. They were post marked " Columbus, May 25." In both instances they were at once detected as farmeries, by the persons to whom they were directed. How many more have been forwarded to various parts of this State and of other States, we are unable to say ; but we have reason to believe that they have been extensively circulated. We give below a true copy of this infamous document, (omitting the signature,) that an intelligent and virtuous community may draw their own conclusions as to its object, and form their own estimate of a cause which a resort to such unprincipled means 1s deemed necessary to sustain. CIRCULAR: Pbivatb a.vd Cosifioestiai.. The times call for decided and eneroelio action. The crisis has arrived when we MUST have relief. No half way measures will answer our purpose now. The Vandals must be driven from the capital at all hazards. The end to be accomplished will justify the resort to ANY means within our power; for we stand upon the abyss of destruction, to which we have been hurried by the mad schemes of the present dominant party. We must make one last desperate effort more to save our country, or we are lost, irretrievably and forever. Union and concert of action are essential to the suc cess of the Democrats Harrison cause-. We cannot rely upon reason and argument to convince the great mass of the people of their political errors: Hut they must be reached through their sufferings. And more especially is this the case with the Germans. Accustomed, in their own country, to look to the government as the dispenser of (rood and of evil, of prosper ity and adversity, we must charge home unceasingly upon the administration all the embarrassments and pecuniary difficulties of the country the fall in the price of produce, and proclaim continually that, as soon as Gen. Harrison is elected, all will be prosper-. ous trade flourishing commerce reviving high pri eea for wheat and this numerous, but ignorant class, will be induced to aid in putting down the administration, from their cupidity, if nothing else. The next class upon which we can operate is the journeymen mechanics and laboring men. Fortunately for us our party possesses the power of making money scarce, and the means ot giving employment, or withholding it. The capital and the command of the business of the country is in our hands. This power alone, if judiciously used, will give us Ohio, and secure the election of Gen. Harrison. The journeyman mechanic, from the nature of his employment, possesses but little independence of mind, and rather than lime his lituation, will generally conform to the wishes of his employers in political matters. This course has heretofore been successfully pursued in oilier parts of the country, and if commenced soon in this Slate, and cautiously persevered in until election, will bring thousands to the standard of Harrisonian democracy, or compel those who are obstinate to seek employment elsewhere, and thus lose their residence and their voles. The reasons assigned for all this, must be the prostration of business by the ruinous acts of the administration. The time for argument has indeed gone by. The passions and prejudices of the people must be appeal ed to. This alone can arouse them from the fatal slumber into which they have been lulled hy the syren song of Loco foco democracy. Sympathy for the wronged, is a powerful chord in the human heart when properly touched: and when aroused for the war-worn veteran who heads our ranks will sweep over the land wiih a resistless force. This should be seen to. Cslumnies, the most vile and rovoltinir, set afloat against the old Genoral, charged to the Loco-focos. and rebutted with indignation by our party, would produce an astonishing effect. This has been dona to some extent, hut not enouoli, Elfigies, cloth ed in petticoats and hung up by the road side, would do much good in the same way. Making llie locos call him a coward and a granny, and assert that he nover was in n h iitle, will arouse the indignation of his old soldiers. St ties of ben. Harrison e benevo lence and kindness to orphans and decrepid old men invented and circulated far and wide, would effect t crest deal. On the oilier hand, continually charge Van Duren with being a federalist with opposition to the war, and to the extension of the riuhl of suffrage with hit ' extravagant expenditure of the public money his gold plates, knives and forkshis English coach and his Kniilnh livery. I he Handing army will he a power ful weapon with the tuwer and ignorant classes. Above all, keep up the incessant ami intangible cry of corruption corruption. Tito Posl Office Department is a fine field for this. Never slop to bandy proof with our upponer.ts, but keep thrm on the dclrnce. I'roclaitn changes in every quarter, but be very can-tut in statins names. Davis' speech on the reduction of tho wages of labor by the administration, if kept before the public, will have immense effect with those who are not accus tomed to investigate political matters. Thedefaul ers, if artfully paraded before the public rye, will have great influence over the minus ol the timid and wave intf. We have every thing to gain, and nothing to lose in the present contest. I liiuirs cannot be any worse, an the American people will bless us in all after times, if we can, by any mrant, rid the country of the present corrupt and corrupting dynasty. Willi this end view, we respectfully submit the shove suggestion for your consideration, relying -upon your prudence and devotion to the cause, lor their judicious applica tion. P. S. Since the above was in type, we have re ceived from the Central Committee a communication in reference to this "Circular," which will be found in another column. fc The Middletown Mail, neutral, has given place to the Middletown Farmer which, of course, tak ides with the Log Cabins. We have received a num ber of new Whig papers, within the past two weeks, and from every point of the compass. Buckeye Log Colon in I'iqua. It would afford pleasure to comply with (lie request in the I'iqua Cour ier, by publishing the acoounl of the raising of the Cabin in Ptqua, but we luck for room.

Nothing is so alarming to the spoilsmen as the spirit of inquiry which the present wide-spread business prostration and pecuniary distress has awakened among the People. So long as each man's business, with ordinary skill and diligence on his part, continued to prosper, the cry of the sentinel servants who had been chosen to watch over our political interests and see that no evil befel the Republic that "all is will" satisfied the majority of the People. That eternal vigilance, which we have been truly told is the price of liberty, slept, or was only awake to the professions of devotion to correet principles and the public weal, so constantly and loudly proclaimed by the men in power, and those who were selfishly interested in perpetuating the power in their hands, until a blight came upon every man's business.

Charge them with bringing the power and patronage f the Government into conflict with the freedom of lections, and they tell us "to the victors belono the spoils. Point to the enormous and fraudulent cfalcations of Swartwout and others, and show from public documents, which themselves have reluctantly furnished, that the peculations of these thieves was winked at by at least one member of Mr. Van Buren' Cabinet, and their sole response is, ' Swartwout was A Whig."

It must not see the light : it is too bold a measure of tyrsnny : the People will not bear it yet. And so throughout the long catalogue of offences of which they stand charged. They have no substantial defence. Their course has been reek- ess, selfish, experimental, dishonest, and they know it; and, what troubles them most, the majority of Ihe People know it know it from sad experience of ill fleets. Out power and the spoils are dear to their cankered hearts, and must be preserved. Hence their asperate and unceasing efforts to divert public atten tion from tin true issue, and fix it upon false ones of their own making. Hence their continual hue and cry and false clamor, the last resort of cunning rogues on the eve of detection.

When the oluue-holders, from the Governor down to Ihe man of ihe "out side quires," were called, in a body, to Washington cily, under pretence of attend- g the convention at Baltimore, which did not noni- nate a Vice President, we were satisfied, that the ad ministration had got a glimpse of ihe hand writing on the wall, and becoming alarmed, had called in the 'tooth layert" and astrologers from various parts of the union, lo meet and enquire, not what they should do to save Ihe nation but "what they should do to be saved" themsslves. The efforts of this grand consultation were soon dis- loverable, even at this distance from the While House. The office-holders which had previously been noisy declnimnrs from the stump, in bar rooms, and in the corners of the streets," all at once became silent. The browbeating, boisterous, dictatorial manner of the man "clothed in a lillle brief authority," was suddenly changed to kindness and conciliation. No challen ges were given hy those who enjoy "the patronage of Ihe General Government," to the advocates of the cause of the people lo meet them in public discussion a portentous calm all at once succeeded to the storm of party zeal. Even "the little Marshal," who has for years been so fascinated by the sound of his own musical voice that silence seemed lo him "the worst of ills," obedient to orders from head quarters, has, for a time, ceased lo hold forth in public. But what is Ihe meaning of all lliixl Do the office holders mean to give up "the ipoili" without a struggle! No indeed ! Let not the friends of reform be lulled into a fatal security by a deceptive calm in the political elements- Tar more the treacherous calm I dread Than tempests bursting o'er my head." The office-holders finding themselves unable to re sist the storm of public indignation which Iheir mil-conduct has excited have concluded it best, like the pliant willow, to (end before the blast, thinking it will soon pass over. To speak plainly, they have concluded it bestlo allay, for the present, the political excitement which is abroad in the land to make little open, opposition to the causa of Ihe people and to lull the friends of reform into a fatal security, by allowing t'nem to think that the battle has already been fought, a-iid the victory won. They believe that the present enthusiasm among the friends of Harrison and Tyler, will spend itsslf in conventions, celebrations, proces sions, and such like publio demonstralions, while a car eful and effective organization of their ranks will be neglected and, consequently, when a systematic onset is made upon them by the well trained bands of the office-holders, they will be found like undisciplin ed mil ilia in a pitched battle, all in confusion, and that in tvitable defeat will he the consequence. The plan of the administration party is, therefore, to keep quiet, to lie low, until after the adjournment of Congrea s; and then, when the friends of Harrison and Reform are reposing in fancied secuiity, as the officeholder t rust they will be, lo make a simultaneous on set upon their unorganized ranks, throughout the union to proclaim lhat there ts Iremenduous reaction in favor of I he administration lo get some new humbug, poasi bly, to circulate freely among the people, Treasury .Notes, or Sub-Treasury Drafts to proclaim that the Sub-Treasury has given the promised relief, and thtto t. oarry iho fell oleollono hy olnrm. We, the refore, as faithful sentinels on the watch tower of 1 iberty, desin it our duty to caution our friends ga inst the arts and devices of subtle enemy to warn t hem to be industrious and vigilant to seek the dissemi nation of correct principles and important truths anion g the great body of Ihe people, who, ma ny of them, from Iheir situation, have not access to all thesoureoa of correct information which iheir more for tunate neighbors and friends enjoy to effect an early systematic, and efficient organization, among Ihi friend of true reform and in short, to be every way prepared for the great conical wkjich we must maintain in favor of liberty, prosperity, and the constitution, at the approaching elections. THE WAND OF THE MAGICIAN. The reputation of possessing power or infallibility is frequently equivalent to its actual possession, While Ihe soldiers of Napoloon, as well as his ene mies, belitved him unconquerable, he waa in fact lo, But when Ihe element! conspired against him, and broke the magio spell of his invincibility, the charm was gone, and with il, hia good fortune. "What do you fear, you carry Viaar," wai luffi- cirnt lo inspire Ihe dismayed sailors with renewed courage amidst the roar of the winds and waves thai threatened them with instant destruction; and many a man of second, or even third rale ahililies, has wielded the political power of a great party, merely berause he has had the name of being its leader and the dispenser of its patronage. This ia the true secret of the success of Martin Van Buret). Supremely selfish, and endowed by nature with that stealthy cunning which enables animals of Ihe foliim raco lo seize iheir unsuspecting prey with out encountering danger to themselves; but possessing neither boldness, magnanimity, nor true wisdom, he has attained his ends by those secret and indirect meani which have secured to iin the unenviabl nam of "Ihe Little Magician." With this name, the great mass of the people have associated the idea of some mysterious supernatural power to insure the suc cess of his schemes, however injurious lo the inter est of the country, or however improbable their a1 tuinmcnt inisjht appear. This idoa, the servile follow ers of Mr. Van lluren those who wait si his table for Iho sake of the crumbs which fall from il have industriously propagated among the people lor the sake of securing tho votes of the office-seekers, and of those whose only ambition is "to be on the strange. I title." nut il is Ihe misfortune of those who systematically seek to deceive others, lo become al last the dupes of their own impositions, and Is fall victims to their blind belief in their own infallible fortune. They cense to place due reliance on Ihe established connection bolwoen cause and effect, and consequently neglect the moans which are alone competent to secure the desired end. Thus, we see thai a blind belief in his unconquerable destiny, led Napoleon to aacrifice his veteran ar mies and himself in the snows of Husiia Criur, to neglect the warnings of his friends, and fall t victim to tbo daggers of the conspirators; and tho same blind infatuation seems lo hate led Mr. Van Buren lo disregard the counsel of the purest patriots and greatest statesmen of the land to close his ears to the petitions Ihe grosns tin deep murmurings of sn oppressed and indignant people and lo rush- madly on to certain destruction, relying on his magical wand lo save him from his Impending fate. But it will not avail him his wand it broke its talismanie spell has departed. The recent electiona in the empire Slate have been, to his fortune, what the inowi of Russia were lo the armies of Napoleon. The "land of steady habits" has deserted his sinking cause, as did the Saxons that of the Corsican Hero, The ancient Dominion has given him notice that his power must hereafter be circumscribed within the limits of Ihe place of his nativity and a Waterloo defeat will put a final end, in November next, lo all his remaining hopes. THE COMMITTEE. It is humiliating to witness the low shifts to which the friends of Martin Van Buren allow themselves to resorl, in iheir efforts to sustain him. Every movement lhat is made beats upon its black front evidence, not to be mistaken, that they are engaged in a struggle for power and place not for principle. Witness the influence thut is brought to bear upon the Presidential question, by the removal of faithful and capable me.i from office, to give place lo those who will use all the facilities of means and station to perpetuato power in the hands of the present ruling party. Wit- ness the efforts lhat have been made to bring reproach pon the name of on who has brought honor to his country, and whose whole life has been one of peril, toil, and active usefulness. Men who approved the means resorted toby Gen. Jackson to relieve himself from the great burden of a personal Mention to the whole of his extensive correspondence, (which, per haps, as in the case of Gen. Harrison, was impossi ble,) now affect the greatest astonishment that a can didate for the Presidency should rosort to such means! Now it is well known that it would be utterly impossible for Gen.

Let it b understood and remembered, also, thai Gen. Harrison is not now for the first time brought before the people as a candidate for the Presidency : lie wot a candidate at Ihe latl election, when hit principle! were fully made known and cuncastedi and he has SAID THAT THKY REMAIN UNCHANGED.

Here, then, the dignified Speaker of the Ohio House of Representalives, a grave Senator in the Ohio Le gislature, an honorable ex-member of the Congress of the United States, and eight other gentlemen "of high respectability," have published to the world that they could be duped hy an assertion (admitting it had been asserted) lhat Gen. Harrison, months afler it had been the common theme of the whole country, although having daily intercourse with both political opponents and political friends, "never knew, until within a few days, who the committee was that had assumed Ihe right to answer his letters; and thai he did not know until the day before yesterday, who tin chairman of that committee was"! Really, gentlemen, you must have "eyes most devoutly willing lo be blind," or you could not be so easily induced to believe that there was such a complete stagnation of the political sea in the locality of North Bend and the Queen city, while the waves have been running so high every where else! Common prudonce and forecast, to aay nothing of the far-reaching and comprehensive views which statesmen should, and deep statesman do, lake of every thing lhat comes before them, should have induced you lo have obtained Ihe most explicit dec laration even to cerlifkale under his own hand before you would have believed you understood him. One would suppose lhat a man of ordinary capacity, and sane upon all subjects, would at first blush have taken such a declaration, however clearly expressed, as a hoar yet these grave legislators, and men ufhigh respectability, have mudly soin-J upon a casual ex pression of a fellow-citizen, distorted il into an asser- serlinn which no reasoning man in his senses could neueve, and sent oul their thunders or "Development Extraordinary !"' and "Stupenduus Fraud!" Sure ly, gentlemen, you had become fuddled upon the fumet of hard cider ! Although, nut at all necessary for the refutation of the singularly ridiculous certificate above given, we copy from the Clermont Courier Mr. Grant's explana tion: A friend has just placed in my hand an extra Ohio Sun, of the Kith, containing the rertificale of T.J. Buchanan and oihers, on Ihe auhjeel of a stalemeut I made in Ilalavia on thai day. As those cerliftratn- men seem to have misunderstood what I said, I feel it my duly to explain. 1 did not any, or did not intend to say, for such was not the fnct, lhat (Jen. Harrison said to me any thing on that subject. i is true I saw Gen. Ilnrrisnn at the time referred to, and had some conversation with him, but not on that subject, for I neither knew or cared about thai commilteu. While we were in conversation, some three or four gentlemen of Gen. Harrison's acquaintance, niel in on the pavement, anil commenced a conversation with liim, on Ihe subject of Mr. Grundy's speech, at Ihe Baltimore convention, in which Mr. Grundy look occasion to say, by the authority or Judge Burke, that Gen. Harrison waa a euper.inniialcd, debilitated old man. whol ly incapable uf receiving, reading, or answering his own lellers. Hence the necessity of appointing thi committee. Afler some remarks hy Gen. Harrison, I understood him to say that h did not know, until within a tew nays, wuo composed thai coiinmiioo, except the chairman. I will now stale what I said on thnt subject while in Batavia, fur 1 think I remember very well everv word, and what led to the remark. 1 saw a group of some mcniy men cuneciea logeiuer near the Recor der's office, and heard Thomas J. Buchanan declaiming in a very loud and apparently angry manner, against Gen. Harrison for having, what he termed, a board of conscience-keepers. Some person present, whom I did not know, remarked that he supposed it was such a committee as Gen. Jackson's Nashville white-washing committee. I theu remarked that I saw Gen. Harrison the day before, and heard hirn say that he did not know who that committee was until within a few days, except the chairman. Before I had quite finished the remark I waa interrupted by J. D. Morris, who seemed to be passing behind where I stood. I then repealed the statement, and he passed along to the court-house. ': Gen. Harrison did not say, that he did not know who the chairman was until day before yesterday, neither did I so state. But he did state that he read and examined his letters himtelf, and such as required no particular answer, he handed over lo the chairman of lhat committee. During my interview with Gen. Harrison (for it was the first time I ever saw him) I learned thi fact, that he is not lhat broken down, de bilitated old man, that his enemies have represented him to be, but seems to be in full enjoyment of health, and vigor, and seems to b fully capable of attending to any kind of business. And on the subject of eour-arn, to much doubted by a certain class of politicians, if 1 were permitted to judge Irom the tire ol nis eye, i would say some ot these certincate-men migni oe engaged in a better business than putting it lo the lest.

Dear Sin I enclose you herein i declaration of in dependence-. Mr. Palmer is a man of probity and ex tensive influence. His letter shows him to b a man of talent. One thing speaks in favor of his sincerity he might have had the nomination of the Tory parly for the next Legislature, and it is believed other chances were not wanting for him to feed at Ihe public crib. He lias had the aourage to take Ihe right "position," and to come out and "define" il; and my objeet in for warding it to you is, that it may find a place in your valuable paper, as I am sure it will, if you know the man, and think as highly of the production a I do. I will add, that there an a good many others in this plac alone, probably not lesi than 1 0 or 1 2, not to men- lion those in the surrounding lowns who have come out from the ranks of thi Utuiant, and joined Ihe rev olutionary army in this great moral war for independence. This step of Mr. Palmer' will embolden them to eome out. The good work goes bravely on. We are united, not lorn by local dissensions. Truly did Mr. Van Buren say, lhat "the sober second thought of the people ia always right," as he will have occasion to reflect amid the shades of Kinderhook. Yours respectfully. . rrom ttmt--j-I.ETTER To the Chairman of the Democratic Convention, of the 3d Congressional Uiuncl oj I lie .Vne oj unto, to lie holden at ,V. Marys, on Ihe ifoiA of the present month, May, itf-lii. Sir: The position my name occupies, as one of the delegation from this county, lo represent its democracy in your Convention, and the conclusions to which my mind has been drawn, in relation lo Ihe policy of the administration, impose upon me a duty from which 1 have no disposition to shrink a duty which I will endeavor to perform in lhat spirit of candor, conciliation, and manly frankness, which, I trust, will ever distinguish my intercourse wilh my fellow-citizens, upon every important question that may arise for their decision. I cannot, sir, participate in Ihe deliberation of your Convention; nor by any acta of mine, however feeble or unimportant ihey may be, longer contribute to strengthen a cause whiih the settled convictions of my judgment, the irresistible testimony of events- teach me, is at war with the best interests of my coun trywith the stability and permanency or it most cherished institutions. A cause which is in open hos tility loan those cardinal principles ol democracy by which II proleaaea lo be governed one which, in the tendency of it measures, is fraught with incalculable danger to the very existence of the Republic; and which seeks, hy Ihe elevation of a Chief Magistrate whose acta are condemned by Ihe almost unanimous voice of the American feop'.e ould lhat voice be heard in its own undisguised language of disapprobation, as it is heard,in the confiding intercourse of private life, free irom trie wintering inuuencn or party prejuuice ana parly tyranny lo subvert the very principles upon which our oovemment is based. But, in making; this communication. Mr. Chairman, I shall not trespass upon Ihe patience of your Convention, nor tamper wilh feelings differing from my own, hy a recurrence to the reasons lhat have brought con-notion lo my mind, any further than may he necessary to justify the course 1 have taken. I will only refer in language as brief, and in terms aa conciliatory, as I am capable of employing;, to one or two of th more prominent or Ihe manifold errors and abuses to which my attention ha been directed; and lo w hich much of Ihe present distress of the country, and of the dangers with which it is threatened, are unquestionably to b attributed. Of these, the most striking: and disastrous in its ef fects upon the prosperity and welfare of ihe people the most dangerous in its tendency to their liberty and happiness is undoubtedly the alarming usurpation of ihe lale and present Administrnii ns, in iheir efforts lo unite the moneyed with Iho r.xeculive patronage and power of the Government. To reducn Ihe circu lating medium or the country to a standard Infinitely below Ihe warns of industry and of euterprii. To unsettle, and greatly to diminish, Ihe fixed value of property, which has brought poverty and suffering upon thousands of the most worthy and valuable of our fel- low-ciuzens, and spread ruin and desolation through out the land. To depress the great muss of the labor ing and productive clashes of community, by reducing tho prices of labor and of industry, to Ihe standard of Iho most degraded portions, and the worst governed nationa, of Ihe old world; and finally, lo lake from Ihe poor man thnt powerful and salutary Incentive lo action lhat incumnariihlv beneficent stimulus In An honest, upright, and industrious course of life, which a wholesome and woll regulated uredil system is so admirably calculated lo Imparl. Add lo this, the still more recent and appalling de velopment, of a design upon the liberliea of Ihe people, in Ihe late recommendation of one of the branches of Ihe National Council, for raising, equipping, and disciplining an elToctire army of 100,000 men a band uf mercenary soldiers to be at all limes al Ihe beck of iho party in power; and it no longer leaves any room lo doubt that the tendency of Ihe leading measures of the Administration Is to perpetualc lis power, al whatever aacrifice of popular rights and popular principles it may demand. Oilier causes I might name, for they are numerous and stailling; but these, I trust, were lltero none others, will be deemed sufficient lo justify Ihe course 1 have taken. One other- consideration, however, I will mention, as having induced me, more especially at this time, to seek an opportunity to lay my views before the political party of which your Convention ii composed. My name has been freely used by a por tion of that parly, in connexion with its candidacy Tor representative from this district to the next Stale Legislature. In the coming election, so important in it results upon the welfare of Ihe country, I desire to go into the eontest with "a pure heart, and with clean hands" to stand forth unshackled either by personal interest or by party obligations. And aa I could not, if elected, discharge mv duty to my country, to my conscience and to my God, without doing violence to Ihe (onnuene that would have thus Den reposed tn me, I embrace this opportunity to make known my position. In thus severing myself from the deliberations of your body, and from political identity with the individuals of whom it ia composed, I have found that it has required no ordinary effort of the will no common strength of purpose to withdraw from thi support of those long tried and faithful friends, whoso claims to the honorable and responsible trust of Representative in our National uouneil, will be brought forward Tor its decision. But, as the motives which have governed me, are, Not that I loved Cesar less, but Home more," I trust that I shall be acquitted of any personal hostility in my feelings towards those gentlemen. My. only desire, my most fervent and daily aspiration to my Maker, is, lo see this great Government, of Ihis hitherto prosperous and happy people, wrested from the hands of the spoilsmen rescued from the grasp of those Vandals, who have laid the sxe at the root ot Ihe aacred tree of liberty and- to- M it commuted to Ihe guidance of ethers, men capable,, more honest, more devoted to their country's good. wiin inese sentiments, Mr. Chairman, I have th honor to be, Your yery humble aerv't, ANDREW PALMER. rroei ths I'llM.
